“A free goose was a nice surprise, should have kept it for your yard.”

It was a wild Canada goose. Not legal to keep it. It lived out its days at a rehab facility. Or so I was told. Damn things are like rats with wings around here. They dint even fly south anymore.

I’m learning !

I just saw kubaton on amazon. First I’ve ever heard of it.

How does it work ? How do you use it or apply it ?

...
There’s nothing to it it cost 7 Bucks you get one for each member of your family. You swing it back and forth grip your hand around it when you come out of the grocery store late at night you jog with it you run with it you basically protect yourself with it. If you hit with somebody with it it’s going to leave a mark and make them probably go down and pain where you when you run away and you save your life. It will also break a car window if you get trapped in the lake. And it will definitely take out a wild animal like a charging Pitbull.

Carry bear spray. The $60 cans. They’ll stop a bear. They’ll stop a pit bull. They’ll stop a pit bull owner. Unless he has a gun.

I’m sure this won’t go over well with some people. I live in the city and Cincinnati and see two to three pitbulls per day on leashes some not on leashes, and my wife jogs around our neighborhood and has to go to the other side of the road while some of these punks have there ‘pitties’ walking them around and she and I both have kubatons on our keys if one of these dogs ever charges me the dog will die I will break its neck and I will stab it enough times to make it die my only hope is I don’t stab myself while I’m doing it I have no tolerance for them whatsoever. I also am an animal lover I love cats I love dogs I simply love animals, however I have no tolerance for pitbulls. I don’t need a lecture on how they’re raised or what they’re raised for - I live in the city of Cincinnati and I have been dealing with pitbulls for the past 15 years. 6 years ago one of our church parishioners was dragged out of her house by two pit bulls who stripped her naked tore off her scalp and tore her face up she has to wear a wig and she is deformed on her face from this attack she nearly died -if she wasn’t such a stubborn cranky lady she would have died. I have petted some pitbulls the problem is you cannot tell one who is not going to snap from one who will snap ... kind of like with Taqiyya you can’t ever believe a Muslim.

You expressed that beautifully.

Personally, I believe that the owner of a pit bull should be charged with assault or manslaughter if their dog ever kills someone. If they’re so comfortable that their dogs are so good, they shouldn’t disagree with me.

If I ever had a child or elderly family member hurt of killed by a pit bull, the owner would have a price to pay.

Pit bulls are not mean dogs by nature. If they are it’s some human who has made them so. People think it’s great fun to put them against each other to fight, not sure why. These same people do it to male roosters. Just evil. In the end the dog pays more than the humans.

Were they not bred for fighting? I think they were. How many golden retrievers have mauled children to death? How about German short hair pointers? Or German Shepherds?

Instead of Mace, there is a product called Muzzle that doesn’t cause permanent damage to the dog. If it’s a pit bull, I wouldn’t care if it caused damage to the dog. If a dog is aggressive to me, I will stop it by any means necessary.

I usually carry Mace. I am not familiar with the bear spray but I will check that out.

“Were they not bred for fighting? “

That’s what I just said! Some human made them that way. Not all though. Pete from Little Rascals was a pit bull! If stupid humans don’t make them mean then they are not mean. They are very loving animals.

If you ask me it’s the stupid humans who should be shot!

By the way pit bulls who have been trained in “the pit”? can be put in rehab and it works!

I think the woman in this story? Did not know the meaning “good fences make for good neighbors” When you have a dog, any dog have a very good fence.

First thing I did when I got a pit was build a fence. They’re like watching twins, no matter how well behaved. But, I think the dog had an issue with someone in that house, and I don’t think the dog started it.

I worked as a meter reader in the 1980s. I can’t tell you how many times I had to enter a yard or go through a house where a dog was present to get at a meter and have the Householder tell me “Oh he doesn’t bite, he’s friendly”,... two seconds later the dog tries to attack me. My standard question to these folks became: “Does your dog still have teeth?” when they said yes I said: “Then he can bite” “either put the dog away or keep a hold of him or your electric bill will be estimated this month.”

I probably dealt with 50,000 different dogs during my 5 years as a meter reader. I know dogs.

Any and every dog will bite, can bite, does bite...each and every dog

You are saying used/trained for fighting. I am saying bred for it. Nature vs nurture.

You know a lot of people argue this out. Some say they are born to fight like Huskies are born to run.

I really believe they are taught this by their owner. They see it “makes their owner happy” and they display that behavior.

Don’t know but do know some people actually train dogs to do this and am sure you would agree those people should be shot.

I’m sure you’d be cool with someone disciplining your child for teasing a dog through a fence, too.

“...it will definitely take out a wild animal like a charging Pitbull.”

Perhaps you are a total master of the kubotan (not kubaton), but I certainly hope there will be someone nearby with a sidearm if you should ever have to defend yourself with a kubotan against a pitbull attack.
